Awesome, I'm usually down that way in Jan, Feb or March. The seat was the first upgrade I made. Coming from an XR650R and a KTM 990 makes it feel like
a trials bike. The 990 is still good to eat up miles but get a lot less dirt use now...

I think we should start a moto Baja Nomad off road club. What do you guys think. I also love 4x4 love the guys from Pole line 4x4 run but trying to
get them to go out more like pulling teeth. Of course I understand people have jobs and family with respect. The custom seat a must on any bike. The
990 KTM in deep sand very hard to ride.

All is forgiven for a generator at 5:30 am
Woke-up by a generator at 5:30 am - thinking what the hell!
They had an interruption of electricity service but knew it would be important to have coffee ready. They set-up this in the patio. All was forgiven
for the generator.

hola dk,
when we hunted in the desert way back in the 1970's, we carried two coffee cans, one with the grounds and one for boiling water over an open fire.
poured water in the empty can, added the grounds and placed it over the fire. we let the can with water and grounds boil for a short while and
voila...hot coffee !
just needed to pour the coffee slowly so as not to get the boiled grounds in our cup.
it was called " COWBOY COFFEE ".
BIEN SALUD, DA RAT

different areas..

You guys start the dates as I ride most weeks anyway. Ride local or go to El Coyotes spend the night. Then go south to Jardines spend the night. Then
100 mile ride back to San Vicente. Even stay at Coyotes two nights ride the trails.

The Old Mill ("Molino Viejo") was pretty fancy looking when I had dinner there last April... it was inexpensive for the lobster burrito plate and with
soup, salad, and a Pacifico, only 230 pesos (US$13 then).

I'm thinking October. The kids have a couple 3 day weekends with Jewish holidays.
Maybe take one more day off. Spend 2 days riding around Coyote Cals?
Kids started surfing this summer. Any good surf spots down there?

Molino Viejo was open for breakfast at 8 am Saturday last November. We needed to get going earlier, so tried Don Eddy’s and it was very good. Cooked
to order, fresh corn tamales and entertaining host. Thanks for the Jardine’s breakfast tip. Love it there - server remembers our names and
preferences and makes sure we are taken care of even when the place is packed out.
When the way comes to an end, then change. Having changed, you pass through.

How old are your kids? I think they missed the boat for surfing. Keep them on bikes. They might get good? Starting surfing at their ages is a waste of
time. They will never be good at it.
